Eagles

Eagles CB Sidney Jones said his “No. 1 focus” this offseason is getting back to 100 percent after rupturing Achilles tendon last year. 

โ€œItโ€™s my No. 1 focus this offseason โ€” getting right,โ€ Jones said, via Jeff McLane of The Inquirer. โ€œShow everybody what I can do. Facing adversity โ€ฆ itโ€™s about moving forward. Thatโ€™s the task at hand.โ€

While Jones mentioned that he would like to gain weight for next season, team trainers told him they want him to stay lighter. 

Iโ€™ll probably put the weight on, I would like to, but my body, Iโ€™ve learned it over the past years, and they told me that they would rather me be lighter and move than vice versa, because Iโ€™ve never been like a super heavy guy,โ€ Jones said. โ€œEven in college I was skinny, but I still handled my business.โ€

Packers

  • The Green Bay Packers announced that they have hired Kevin Koger as an offensive quality control coach and Jason Vrable as an offensive assistant.
